TIMES asked Hannah Simone, TV Star on hit comedy 'The New Girl' (and others including George Bush, John Kerry, and Jodi Picoult) what she was thankful for:

He was born in 1947 into a newly independent India. I believe that somehow the spirit of this free Mother India was woven into the fabric of his being. He bravely led with his heart and was the first person in his family to defy strict tradition and have a “love marriage” versus an “arranged marriage.” He refused to let anyone tell him how to live his life, eschewing the dictates of fear.

So when his first-born was a daughter, he decided to break the cycle of patriarchy that denied so many Indian women the ability to have any choice in their own future. Since the day I was born, my dad encouraged me to find my own strength, follow my own heart, and live my own life.

My father wasn’t naive to the gender inequalities I would continuously face as I grew up, so one factor in my life became non-negotiable: my education. He knew a solid education was liberating, inalienable and enduring. It was the key to maximizing my full potential and protecting independence.

It was the one gift I could be given that could not be taken from me.

Because of my father’s courage, vision, and pioneering feminist spirit, I now have two university degrees. I’m building a career and life for myself on my own terms. And perhaps most importantly, I’m able to be in relationships where love and respect are the only reasons to stay.

My father, Narendra (Naren) Simone, paved the way for me, and for that I am thankful.

Hannah Simone is an actress known for her role as Cece on FOX’s New Girl.

Born in India, educated in England, Narendra, a published author of 8
books, is a citizen of Canada and has lived in India, England, Canada,
Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and the USA. He resides in
Canada. He has traveled to more than eighty countries covering Western,
Central & Eastern Europe, Central Asia, South-East Asia, the Far East, the
Middle East, South America, North America and Africa. Narendra and the
Hindu God, the Lord Krishna has something in common—they were both born in
the town of Mathura (India), albeit about a few thousand years apart. He
attended schools in India, England and Canada (Narendra, not the Lord
Krishna) and studied at the Universities of Agra & IIT Roorkee (both in
India), Nottingham (England) and Calgary (Canada). Witnessing six wars (4
in India and 2 in the Middle East) and travelling to over 80 countries has
allowed him to gain an in-depth knowledge of diverse cultures. Inspired by
true events his writing offers insight into cultural differences and subtle
humour that coexist in the complex world. Although richly influenced by his
foreign travels, Narendra finds his inspiration from his life experiences
and through his novels invites you to join him on a journey of humour,
mystery and international adventures.

Welcome to the home of my Mystery Novels, Travel Humour and Free eBooks. Do explore this website to find out how to get my Free eBooks on writing and publishing that might help your writing career.

My books are different because of their unique attributes. As a writer of fiction I attempt to create a different, unique, distinctive world—through acts of imagination derived from true events, through emotions that feel true, through characters that are living—and respond to a world, the world I as the writer would like to share with you that is still little known or misunderstood by so many people. As a result my fictionalnovels are derived from extensive research and personal experiences by visiting and often living for extended period of time in the locations of my stories.

Writing is my passion that I could best describe as 'Writing Meditation'. And I believe that fiction is the best tool to explore the full potential of truth and perhaps the best way to tell the truth. I tell stories. I narrate. I try to evoke humanity in narratives with which one could identify oneself with the surrounding world. I try stimulating our imagination.

The stories I tell are compelling and complicated—and, therefore, improve—our sympathies. Hopefully, these stories would educate our capacity for moral judgment. So, allow me to offer you an insight through my books to give you truth in the pleasant disguise of fiction.

I was born to an extraordinary fate. I was born to travel and to experience life in its best form - diversity. Born in India, educated in England and Canada, I experienced and learned about cultural values and various human issue by living in England, Canada, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates, India and the USA.

Witnessing six wars and travelling to over 80 countries has allowed me to gain an in-depth knowledge of various and diverse cultures. Inspired by true events and human rights issues my writing offers insight into cultural differences, age-old traditional values and behaviour dilemma that coexist in the vast diversity and different races of the world.

Through my books I invite you to join me on a journey of adventure, mystery, excitement, and conflicts for life is a journey - never reaching, always exploring.
